But don't let the press fool you — Markle is so much more than the fiancée of a British royal.

Born in Los Angeles, she is best known for her role on legal drama "Suits," in which she played Rachel Zane until earlier this year.

Away from the camera, she is a fashion designer, and was the founder of lifestyle website and brand The Tig, which she has now shut down. She also works as a women's rights activist for the UN's Women's Political Participation and Leadership programme.

From meeting political leaders in Rwanda to enjoying a British Sunday roast with a YouTube star, read on for the incredible jetsetting life and accomplishments of Meghan Markle, His Royal Highness Prince Harry's new fiancée.
